HUDSON-SMITH STORMS TO RELAY GOLD

Matthew Hudson-Smith produced a storming final leg to win Commonwealth Games gold for England's men in the 4x400 metres relay.

The 19-year-old, competing at his first senior major championship, picked up the baton in second, but passed Trinidad and Tobago's Zwede Hewitt with 200m to go and, just when it seemed he had saved nothing for the finish, managed to hold off Chris Brown of the Bahamas to take the title.

The quartet, which also featured Conrad Williams, Michael Bingham and Daniel Awde, came home in three minutes 00.46 seconds to win by 0.05secs at a drenched Hampden Park.
